The Original Vampire

In the early morning of the next day, the sun was shining and soft, and it was very comfortable to shine on people.

Today, the Emperor of the Glorious Empire, His Majesty Reinhardt San Lorenzo, will confer Vera St. Hild as the Duke of the North in the Phoenix Palace.

In addition, the emperor will also grant Colin Anglie the authority to guard the northern territory in recognition of his outstanding contributions in fighting trolls and calming the northern rebellion.

Of course, Colin himself knew very well that the key to his gaining the authority of the Guardian of the North was that he gained the trust of Queen Midella last night.

In this way, Colin in the Northern Territory has become "under one person and above ten thousand" existence, and can justifiably control the lords of the Northern Territory without resorting to the name of Vera.

This is also a necessary measure taken by the emperor, worried that Vera will gradually turn to the church due to the influence of divine magic.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Colin and Vera rode horses and began to patrol the Royal Dragon City under the guardianship of the Knights of Glory.

Of course, it is said to be patrolling the whole city, but in fact it is a circle around the Phoenix Palace.

The soldiers of the city defense army had already blocked the surrounding intersections, forbidding carriages, horses, and pedestrians to pass. The children of the imperial capital nobles and attendants of various families could only gather on both sides of the road, looking at the incoming Duke of the North with curious eyes.

Vera is wearing a gorgeous duke dress today, her hair is wrapped in the most popular lady bun style, a string of crystal-clear and round pearl necklaces hung on the fat-like neck, and the delicate three-dimensional features are painted with light makeup, and she has a radiant beauty and grace. The noble temperament immediately attracted the attention of many aristocratic young men.

Perhaps these guys are cursing Colin secretly in their hearts-how can such a beautiful woman who has combined beauty and power in her life be given the first step by the son of this country baron!

This is not because Colin is careful and deliberately arranging the children of the imperial capital nobles. Those eyes cast on him from both sides of the street are almost undisguised jealousy.

After patrolling the city, Colin and Vera came to Phoenix Palace.

Four knights in exquisite armor, armed with ceremonial spears, stepped forward to guard the two of them onto the golden cashmere carpet.

Entering the main hall, there are six statues of angels holding swords on both sides. They are all carved out of white glazed rock. They have convergent wings and drooping eyebrows. They face the entrance of the main hall and are half kneeling on the pedestal, as if they were coming in by Colin and Vera. Bow his head to salute.

Beyond the angel statues, the great figures of the Glorious Empire stood on both sides of the main hall.

In the hall, there were only the sonorous and powerful footsteps of the honour knight and the couple Colin, and the atmosphere was solemn and solemn.

Halfway through, Colin stopped and let Vera go forward alone, towards Emperor Reinhardt.

The sun shines through the crystal skylight at the top and enters the hall to form a pure beam of light, just covering Vera and Reinhardt the Great in the center of the hall.

Vera's body was covered with a faint golden halo by the sun. She pulled out the saber around her waist, knelt on the steps, bowed her head, and held the saber in her hand.

Emperor Reinhardt took Vera's saber, the blade was placed on her shoulder, and he said loudly:

"I, the Emperor of the Glorious Empire, Reinhard San Lorenzo, in the name of the Lord of Glorious and the Holy Ancestor, canonize Vera Saint Hild as the Duke of the Northern Territory of the Glorious Empire. I hope you will use loyalty, courage and wisdom. , To protect this glory!"

Immediately, Vera's clear but slightly immature voice sounded in the hall:

"I, Vera St. Hild, swear by the heroic spirit of the ancestors of the Golden Lion family, to dedicate my loyalty to the Lord of Glory, to the great San Lorenzo!

Your will is my way forward, and your order is my faith! "

Emperor Reinhardt nodded, returned the saber to Vera, and took out the Duke's seal from the tray held by the sword-bearing knight next to Vera.

At this point, Vera's canonization ceremony came to an end.

The attribution of the Duke of the North is finally settled.

Colin looked at the scene before him, finally letting out a long sigh of relief.

Of course, Vera becoming a duke does not mean that everything is well, Colin knew that waiting for him, there are more severe tests.

As Vera stepped aside, Colin strode forward, came to Emperor Reinhardt, and knelt down on one knee.

Emperor Reinhardt looked deeply at the young knight who was kneeling in front of him, with an extremely complicated expression flashing in his eyes. It was not until Queen Midella behind him coughed a few times that he came back to his senses and said loudly again. :

"I, the Emperor of the Glorious Empire, Reinhardt San Lorenzo, on behalf of all the lords and nobles of the empire, in this sacred place, grant Viscount Colin Angel the authority to the guardian of the north."

Immediately, Emperor Reinhardt took out the golden dagger symbolizing the guardian status and handed it to Colin.

Colin took it with both hands and said loudly:

"I, Colin Angele, in this sacred place, under the gaze of the Lord of Radiance, shoulder the responsibility of guarding the North, and honor it from today until the end of my life!"

Afterwards, Colin got up and prepared to retreat, but was stopped by Emperor Reinhardt:

"Viscount Angele, the saber around your waist is [Judgement Blade], right?"

Colin was stunned, stopped quickly, leaned slightly and said: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Can I see it?"

"certainly!"

Zheng—

Colin slowly drew out his sword and handed it to Emperor Reinhardt.

Emperor Reinhardt held the sword in one hand, and slowly stroked the dark sword with the other hand, and the flame-like lines emitted bursts of golden light wherever it passed.

"Three emperors have died under this sword, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

There are indeed three-the "Black Emperor" who was beheaded by the "Judge" Duke of St. Theon three hundred years ago, the troll emperor Murdov who was beheaded by the Duke of St. Hilde five years ago, and who had just died at the beginning of this year. The troll emperor Modo II in Colin's hands.

Emperor Reinhardt stared at this knight sword for a long while before he suddenly asked, "You know, what did the king slayer say before killing the Black Emperor 300 years ago?"

Colin shook his head, completely unsure of what Reinhardt the Great wanted to do.

The nobles who came to watch the ceremony were also at a loss, only Queen Midella's eyes flickered, seeming to be thinking about something.

Emperor Reinhardt suddenly shot, the long sword drawn a golden light in the air, and it reached Colin's throat in the blink of an eye.

There were shouts of exclamation in the hall, and everyone was frightened by the emperor's actions.

Vera was about to rush over in a hurry, but was pulled by Queen Midella.

However, Colin remained motionless, not even blinking his eyes, as if what was in front of him was not the murder weapon stained with the blood of the three emperors, but a non-threatening wooden stick.

When Emperor Reinhardt saw Colin's calm reaction, his eyes flashed with admiration, and he said: "He said-'On behalf of my lord, give you the judgment you deserve!"

Colin blinked, waiting for the emperor to follow.

Sure enough, Emperor Reinhardt asked again: "Do you know how the Black Emperor responded?"

Colin shook his head again: "Please forgive my ignorance, Your Majesty."

Of course, Emperor Reinhardt would not blame Colin. In fact, this history has always been a taboo, and none of the nobles present knew what happened at that time.

Only know that the "judge" killed the "black emperor", as for the specific process, and the detailed cause, have been deliberately hidden.

Now, for some reason, Emperor Reinhardt wants to reveal this dusty history.

"Said the Black Emperor—" The corner of Emperor Reinhardt's mouth was slightly tilted, UU reading www.uukanshu. com "'You can't represent my lord, you only represent yourself'!"

Colin squinted his eyes, thinking about what the emperor wanted to express.

After saying this, Emperor Reinhardt returned the Judgment Blade to Colin again, and then left without saying a word.

Vera ran over, took Colin's arm, and asked: "Colin, are you okay?"

"Of course I'm fine." Colin patted Vera's arm lightly and walked out.

The nobles who watched the ceremony stepped forward to congratulate the two masters of the north.

After dealing with the group of people, Colin led Vera out of the hall, but saw a familiar figure in front of the steps.

An inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of Colin's mouth, and he greeted:

"Good day, Archon Sebastian!"
